We consider the algebra of invariants of $d$-tuples of $n\times n$ matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation over an infinite field of characteristic $p$ different from two. It is well-known that this…

In various areas of applied numerics, the problem of calculating the logarithm of a matrix A emerges. Since series expansions of the logarithm usually do not converge well for matrices far away from the identity, the standard numerical…

We construct explicit formulae for the eigenvalues of certain invariants of the Lie superalgebra gl(m|n) using characteristic identities. We discuss how such eigenvalues are related to reduced Wigner coefficients and the reduced matrix…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2. Up to isomorphism, the algebra $\operatorname{Mat}_{n \times n}(k)$ can be endowed with a $k$-linear involution in one way if $n$ is odd and in two ways if $n$ is…

This is an improved version of the talk of the author given at the Antalya Algebra Days VII on May 21, 2005. We present an introduction to the theory of the invariants under the action of GL(n,C) by simultaneous conjugation of d matrices of…

Tropical roots of tropical polynomials have been previously studied and used to localize roots of classical polynomials and eigenvalues of matrix polynomials. We extend the theory of tropical roots from tropical polynomials to tropical…

In this paper, we consider the singular values and singular vectors of finite, low rank perturbations of large rectangular random matrices. Specifically, we prove almost sure convergence of the extreme singular values and appropriate…

Let V be a finite dimensional complex superspace and G a simple (or a ``close'' to simple) Lie superalgebra of matrix type, i.e., a Lie subsuperalgebra in GL(V). Under the classical invariant theory for G we mean the description of…

Let $\text{GL}(n) = \text{GL}(n, {\mathbb C})$ denote the complex general linear group and let $G \subset \text{GL}(n)$ be one of the classical complex subgroups $\text{O}(n)$, $\text{SO}(n)$, and $\text{Sp}(2k)$ (in the case $n = 2k$). We…

Let $X$ be a complex affine variety in $\mathbb{C}^N$, and let $f:\mathbb{C}^N\to \mathbb{C}$ be a polynomial function whose restriction to $X$ is nonconstant. For $g:\mathbb{C}^N \to \mathbb{C}$ a general linear function, we study the…

We show that the Elliott invariant is a classifying invariant for the class of $C^*$-algebras that are simple unital infinite dimensional inductive limits of sequences of finite direct sums of building blocks of the form $$ \{f\in…

We give a complete factorization of the invariant factors of resultant matrices built from birational parameterizations of rational plane curves in terms of the singular points of the curve and their multiplicity graph. This allows us to…

In this work we consider the Takagi factorization of a matrix valued function depending on parameters. We give smoothness and genericity results and pay particular attention to the concerns caused by having either a singular value equal to…

In this paper, we give a matrix-theoretic criterion for the Leavitt path algebra of a finite graph has Invariant Basis Number. Consequently, we show that the Cohn path algebra of a finite graph has Invariant Basis Number, as well as provide…

In [Trace identities and $\bf {Z}/2\bf {Z}$-graded invariants, {\it Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. \bf309} (1988), 581--589] we generalized the first and second fundamental theorems of invariant theory from the general linear group to the general…

We study the number $M_n(T)$ be the number of integer $n\times n$ matrices $A$ with entries bounded in absolute value by $T$ such that the Galois group of characteristic polynomial of $A$ is not the full symmetric group $S_n$. One knows…

Using our recent results on eigenvalues of invariants associated to the Lie superalgebra gl(m|n), we use characteristic identities to derive explicit matrix element formulae for all gl(m|n) generators, particularly non-elementary…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $f_1, \ldots, f_r$ be polynomials in $n^2$ indeterminates over an algebraically closed field $K$. We describe an algorithm to decide if the invertible matrices contained in the variety of $f_1, \ldots,…
